一、作文【作文一)】The Impact of the Mobile Phone in People's LifeThe thought-provoking drawing mirrors a common phenomenon in contemporary society thatthere is the negative influence of mobile phone.As is subtly shown in the picture,so many peopleare too much addicted to cell phones that they use walking sticks to see the road.What ameaningful cartoon!It is to me that indulging in mobile phones produces native influences on body and mind.First and foremost,overusing mobile phones is detrimental to physical health for watchingmobiles for a long stretch definitely impairs one's eyesight.Suppose that a man is addicted in cellphones in whatever situation,it will be very disadvantageous for him to concentrate on his work,leaming,or daily life and is very likely to hurt him.Furthermore,overusing cell phones adverselyaffects state of mind.An addict may stay inside his bubble instead of pursuing other endeavors,which eventually prevents the growth of think skills.It is high time that we took effective measures to curb this trend.I cherish a belief that cellphones themselves are not good or bad and we can benefit a lot from it as long as we take a goodcontrol over them.【作文（二）】The Impact of the Internet on the Way People Communicate网络对人们沟通产生的影响Internet does exert such a profound effect on our life that it revolutionizes the way ofpeople's living and thinking.As is subtly revealed in the portrayal,there are two parents sitting inthe front of computer,who are chatting with their child on the internet.What a meaningfulpicture!From my perspective,the electronic contact cannot replace face to face communicationowing to the following factors.To begin with,over-reliance on electronic contact will damage theinterpersonal relationship,for the cold machine never replaces a warm-hearted greeting face toface.For example,the aged parents would like their only son who works far away home to comeback home more often rather than to talk with him on the internet occasionally.What's more.faceto face communication is preferable because it is beneficial to build a harmonious society,for itattaches more importance on human affection and feelings instead of convenience and speed.Hence,it is necessary for us to use Internet in a reasonable way.After all,Intemet is inventedto connect you and me,and to bring conveniences to our life rather than set a barrier to keeppeople beyond reach.If we want to keep our interpersonal relationship more effectively,we第1页共23页should spend more time with them face to face in real life.Only in this way can we not only makefull use ofthe communication tool on the net but also make our relationship tighter.二、听力测试（原文）2013年12月大学英语四级听力真题原文：听力短对话Question 1M:After high school,I'd like to go to college and major in
